``We don`t stand there, `OK, Data Processing took six trays,` `` Reasner said Tuesday. ``We don`t even spank you with wet noodles,`` said Reasner, who has handled the chore for 11 years.

The inventory does allow Reasner to determine what needs to be replaced.

Last year, less than $450 in cafeteria items -- including 17 coffee mugs and 25 fruit dishes -- had to be replaced.

Notice of the inventory already has gone out in the PBJC Monday Report publication circulated weekly to 800 current and former school employees. Reasner has even gone around on her own, looking through various offices.

But for those who still have cafeteria items, the school will gladly take them outside the cafeteria this morning, no questions asked, she said.

Cafeteria managers usually allow the professors to take trays or other items with their food back to offices.

``It`s not like they are walking out with china from the Hilton. It`s garbage compared to that,`` she said. But regardless of their condition, they still belong to the school, said Reasner.
